Where to find the cursed cave location for the “With great power” quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley
The main story quest “With Great Power” will appear when you unlock the Dazzle Beach biome in the Disney Dreamlight Valley. To start it, you must first talk to Merlin. If you just spent your 5,000 Dreamlight to unlock Dazzle Beach, he’ll be right in front of you. Otherwise, bring up your map and search for Merlin’s mobile avatar to locate him.
Merlin will ask you to explore the cursed cave and look for Ursula to ask for her help. When you’re done talking with Merlin, head to the larger part of Dazzle Beach to the east of the map. Here, you will find the cursed cave in the northeast area of Dazzle Beach at Disney’s Dreamlight Valley, just under the path leading to the Forest of Valor biome. It is easily recognizable by the purple fog surrounding its entrance.
Inside the cursed cave, you will see Ursula floating in the small pool of water. Speak with her to get the crystal key you need to continue the “With Great Power” quest, but don’t forget to open the chest on the right side of the cave! We received a nice red dress for our efforts, but the reward may be different for everyone.
Mystical Cave device location for “With Great Power” quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Now that Ursula has so graciously dropped her crystal key, you need to place it on a device near the locked entrance to the mystical cave at Dazzle Beach.
The Mystical Cave device is located in the western grove of Dazzle Beach, just behind the Power Pillar and a banana tree. You’ll see a large stone door by the cliffs – the stone pillar in front is the device you need to place Ursula’s Crystal Key.
Once you transfer the Crystal Key to the device, that stone door in front of you will open and you will gain access to the mystical cave and its three puzzles.
‘With Great Power’ Mystical Cave Gemstone Puzzle Solution in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Almost as soon as you start exploring the mystical cave, you will encounter the first magic door blocking your progress, and you will need to find a way to remove this first magic door in the mystical cave by solving the gem puzzle in order to further explore the cave.
You get a helpful hint by clicking on the stone tablet in front of the door, which tells you to ‘Provide the gem that best matches to continue your hero’s quest‘. Basically, you have to insert the correct gem color that the three statues in front of you represent.
The solution to the gem puzzle in the “With Great Power” quest is as follows:
- Green luminous statue – insert peridot gem
- Blue luminous statue – insert Blue green gem
- Red luminous statue – insert garnet gem
Here is where you can find all the gems needed to solve this first Mystical Cave puzzle:
- Peridot – Dazzle Beach and Peaceful Meadows
- Blue green Dazzle Beach and Valor Forest
- Garnet Peaceful Meadows and the Plaza
Once you have one of each gem, return to the mystical cave and insert them into the correct statue shown above. The seal of the first magic door will then rise and you can descend – but soon you will find a second magic door and another puzzle waiting for you.
‘With Great Power’ Mystical Cave Reaps Puzzle Solution in Disney’s Dreamlight Valley
For this harvest puzzle in the mystical cave, the stone tablet tells you to ‘Check out the good crops to grow to continue below. One is underground, the other gold and brown. What remains is red and round‘. In unrhymed terms, the stone tablet tells you to plant the right ingredients under the right statue.
The solution to the crop puzzle in the “With Great Power” quest is:
- first statue – plant a carrot
- Second Statue – plant wheat
- Third Statue – plant a tomato
We note the positions of the statues starting with the one closest to the stone tablet.
To grow these three crops, you will need to plant their seeds. You can get the necessary seeds by clear Night Thorns in the same biomes Goofy sells every ingredient in. If you used the seeds, or were unlucky and didn’t get any from clearing Night Thorns, you’ll need to buy crop seeds from the various Goofy stalls instead.
Here is where you can buy all the crop seeds needed to solve this second Mystical Cave puzzle:
- carrot seeds – Goofy’s booth at Peaceful Meadows
- wheat seeds – Goofy’s booth at Peaceful Meadows
- Tomato seeds – Goofy’s stand at Dazzle Beach
If the seeds aren’t spawning for you, try upgrading Goofy’s stand to make more room. If they still don’t spawn after upgrading Goofy’s Stand as much as possible, you’ll unfortunately have to wait until the next day when his stock refreshes – or by removing any respawning Night Thorns in the area.
Be sure to water the crops after planting them in the mystical cave, then wait for them all to grow (the tomato will take the longest with a 25 minute grow time). Once all three crops grow, the second magic door will open, but you’ll be faced with another puzzle.
‘With Great Power’ Mystical Cave kitchen puzzle walkthrough in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Luckily, you don’t need to do any mining or farming to complete this little kitchen puzzle in the mystical cave. The third stone tablet reads ‘The Final Riddle, Let It Be Known: Cook and Eat What You’ve Grown‘.
If you haven’t already, harvest the carrot, wheat, and tomato you planted as part of the previous harvest puzzle, then add them to the pot in front of the third magic door. If you need coal to cook a meal, break the gray rocks behind you to find some.
We recommend breaking the rocks even if you have enough coal, because there is a hidden treasure chest in the biggest one.
Once you’ve cooked the carrot, wheat, and tomato, you’ll have a vegetarian pasta meal. All you need to do now is eat the vegetarian pasta to lower the barrier on the magic third gate.
Orb and Pillar of Power locations in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Fear not, we’re almost at the end of the “With Great Power” quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley! The last thing you need to do in the Mystical Cave is fish the Power Orb out of the Golden Circle in the water at the bottom of the cave.
Switch to your fishing rod as usual, then cast your line in the middle of the golden circle. Once the prompt to roll up the Orb of Power appears, tap it in time with the white circle around the gold circle and you’ll soon be fishing the Orb of Power.
All you have to do with the Orb of Power now is insert it into the Pillar of Power, which is located just outside the mystical cave you are in.
Once the Power Orb is in the Dazzle Beach Pillar, return to the Cursed Cave in the northeast area of Dazzle Beach to talk to Ursula. She’ll reveal important information about The Forgetting’s story, then you’ll need to find and talk to Merlin to finally complete the “With Great Power” quest.
You’ll get 1,000 Dreamlight for completing this quest and can continue to progress through the Disney Dreamlight Valley main story once you unlock the required biomes and characters.
